Waiting for my 488gtb to arrive end of this year and replace my f12 as weekend car.
C63 has always been my pride and joy)

I daily drive mine (even though its less than a mile to work). Oil temp is only at 135 when I get to the office. I walk to work or bike in the wintertime, its just too darn hot here in South Florida and it rains unpredictably in the spring, summer and fall. On the weekends I ring the car out to get the moisture out of the oil and recharge the battery a bit.
Maybe I should get a Tesla for such a short daily commute; however, I think I enjoy the noise too much.

Used to be a DD, until I moved from Atlanta to Seattle. My company shipped my BMW as part of the relocation, (held off shipping my C63)...glad I did; BMW arrived looking like hell as if a bucket of gravel was poured all over it...car stunk inside. I rolled down the windows gravel grinding between the door/Windows.. They asked when would I ship my C63, no thanks pal! Left it in Georgia. That was 9 months ago. Good news I'm relocated to Dallas Texas in November and she's coming along. Can't wait.

I tried to do the low mileage insurance (7,000 mpy). That didn't work out. I DD mine but I'm gone 10-16 days a month. Bought it in Jan with 11,800. Just ticked over 20,000.

I daily mine for 7 months out of the year (Do not drive 5 months during the winter). I average 120 KM / Day for 7 Months.
I have no issues driving her daily, I spend time to take care of the car. I still look forward to the drive every time.

I daily mine summer and winter. Put about 8k a year. Winter tires are a must and with lsd it's not bad in the snow. I wouldn't pick it over my wife's GLK for snow driving but it does just fine driven carefully.

It is my only car so it gets driven rain or shine, wherever I need to go - hiking, camping, home depot - that said, I live in the city so I only drive a few times a week and maybe do 8k a year? However, I don't need to contend with snow in Seattle - just rain.
When I move back to snowy New England I'll probably get a 2nd car for the snow even though I know I could get around with a good set of snows on it.

I used to daily my car to work everyday but now I work .5 miles from the office so I walk and drive her on the days when I can go over 10 miles for a drive and enjoy some time stretching her legs.

Maybe its kind of a sad statement, but there are many days when the best part of my day was the time I spent driving. Never ceases to be enjoyable.

Cheer up. My friend with a 2013 c63 coupe with two kid seats in the back seat doesn't drive his in the rain so a lot of days he just sits in it and listens to the exhaust!
